Unlock Mitsubishi GX Works2 FB Password

1:37 · Published Dec 2025

Platform: Mitsubishi

Recover or remove a block password on a Function Block in a Mitsubishi GX Works2 project. "Block password" is Mitsubishi's own term for this protection, documented in the GX Works2 Operating Manual — and the same manual is blunt about the risk: if you forget it, you cannot open the program inside that FB, and you can't even save further changes to it until the password is removed. If you'd rather have it handled, I provide manual Mitsubishi recovery support — done personally, with nothing sold or downloaded from this site.
